Winner of the Herbert Feis Award from the American Historical Association and named one of the best religion books of the year by Publishers Weekly, D. Michael Quinn's Same-Sex Dynamics among Nineteenth-Century Americans has elicited critical acclaim as well as controversy. Using Mormonism as a case study of the extent of early America's acceptance of same-sex intimacy, Quinn examines several examples of long-term relationships among Mormon same-sex couples and the environment in which they flourished before the onset of homophobia in the late 1950s.

Letters from Exile
Twenty-three years her husband's junior, Martha Hughes Cannon was not the youngest wife of Angus M., a ranking church official. Nor was she a backwoods girl with few options. Mattie was a University of Michigan-trained physician, an outspoken suffragist, and the first female state senator in American history. However, rather than testify against her husband in federal court, she fled with her baby to England in 1886. The couple's correspondence is rich in detail regarding life in Utah on the underground just prior to polygamy's abolition.Of the two, Mattie is especially intelligent, witty, and lusty -- playfully utilizing sensual double entendres in her letters to convey her longing for home -- and describes her travels and predicaments in spirited, entertaining ways. She is frank about her recurring mood swings, in particular her persistent melancholy over having to lie about her identity, to live in poverty, and to be away from her husband while other wives were still by his side. She wrote, The knowledge that it is God's plan is the only thing that saves me from despair -- almost madness I fear.
